Re: Re: CGI::cookie query

Ive tried your script aswell. This is what im doing but it just wont put them all in the cookie. $inputs is a hash which contains only 9 instances (not over 4k).

sub set_cookie_value
{
    my ($inputs) = @_;
    
    my @cookies = ();

    my $key;     
    foreach $key (keys %$inputs)
    {    
        $cookie = new CGI::Cookie(-name=>$key, -value=>$inputs->{$key}
+, -expires=>$inputs->{$key}, -path=>'/', -domain=>'', -secure=>0);
        push (@cookies, $cookie);  
    } 
    
    print header( -cookie=>\@cookies );   
    
    print "--$inputs->{'postcode'}--"
}

Any further ideas?

what is the programs output? you can determine this by running it from a command line, CGI.pm will prompt you for some input variables (you can also pass them on the command line), like so: (line 1 is executing the script, 2 is the script prompting me for input, 3 is my input. between lines 3 and 4 I hit Ctrl-D, lines 4-7 is the output. in this case 2 cookies. `1 xdev$ perl cook.pl 2 (offline mode: enter name=value pairs on standard input) 3 foo=bar 4 Set-Cookie: ID=123456 5 Set-Cookie: preferences=size&12&font&Helvetica 6 Date: Tue, 03 Apr 2001 21:01:04 GMT 7 Content-Type: text/html xdev$` [download] note the code executed above is the same code posted in the previous node	[reply] [d/l]

1 xdev$ perl cook.pl
2 (offline mode: enter name=value pairs on standard input)
3 foo=bar
4 Set-Cookie: ID=123456
5 Set-Cookie: preferences=size&12&font&Helvetica
